Recovery - Dilbert Style

We all hope not to lose any of our valuable data; documents, pictures etc. Well sh*t happens, right? Accidental deletion of files, system or software crash, you name it. In those cases we need a data recovery software tool. So, how about a Free-Libre Open-Source data recovery software toolkit based on Ubuntu.

Ubuntu Rescue Remix is a GNU/Linux live cd that provides the data recovery specialist with a command-line interface environment equipped with the best free-libre, open source data recovery and forensics tools available.

Simply add this to your sources.list

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/arzajac/ubuntu hardy main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/arzajac/ubuntu hardy main

and install

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-rescue-remix

…or download and burn the ISO image to make a bootable CD.
